Operations
The optional automatic water fill system automatically
maintains the correct water level in the sump. The
system requires that you connect the machine to a
dedicated water supply line.
To connect the machine to a water supply line, install a
1/2” NPT (male) by 5/8” (female) connection to the
automatic water fill solenoid assembly, then connect to
a nearby water spigot using a suitable burst proof hose.
Step 4: Fill The Machine With Water And
Add Detergent
1.
Familiarize yourself with sump cover.
2.
Fill the sump with water. If your machine is
equipped with the automatic water fill system,
simply open the water inlet valve; if not, add water
through the wash chamber. The sump capacity is
160 gallons.
3.
When the water level indicator indicates that the
sump is full, shut off the water. If your machine is
equipped with the automatic water fill system the
water will shut off automatically when the sump is
full.
NOTE:
Monitor the water level carefully – do not
overfill the machine.
If you overfill the machine,
remove excess water using a small submersible
pump or a suitable container. The correct water level
is two inches from the top of the sump tank when the
pump is off.
4.
Turn the heater timer to the 2-hour position. The
sump water will reach operating temperature (160–
180°F) in approximately one to two hours.
5.
While the sump water is heating, add the appro-
priate quantity of factory approved detergent
to the
wash chamber. We recommend mixing the
detergent with warm water in a separate bucket/
container and then pouring the dissolved detergent
into the sump.
NOTE:
Factory approved detergent is the only
detergent approved for use with this automatic parts
washer. It is specially formulated with rust inhibitors
and anti-foaming agents to optimize performance and
minimize maintenance. The use of any other
detergent during the warranty period will void the
warranty. In addition, using factory detergents will
extend your 90 day labor warranty to 1 year.
6.
Close and latch the door.
7.
Turn the wash cycle timer to 2 hours for the first
time and allow the machine to complete the cycle
to thoroughly dissolve the detergent into the water.
When the machine stops, and after the wash water
reaches operating temperature, it is ready for use.
